ORDER DIRECTING ISSUANCE OF JUDGMENT OF REVERSAL
The Court considered the briefs filed in the above-entitled matter, together with the appeal record. The Court concluded pursuant to SDCL 15-26A-87.1(C) that the order from which appeal is taken should be reversed on the ground that the habeas court erroneously dismissed the Petitioners ineffective assistance of counsel claims that were premised on the allegations that his trial counsel failed to move to suppress evidence obtained from the smartphone and failed to ascertain the viability of the advance consent theory or pursue other theories of defense. These claims, as pled in the petition, sufficiently stated a claim to survive dismissal under SDCL 15-6-12(b)(5). Steiner v. Weber, 2011 S.D. 40, 815 N.W.2d 549. Therefore, it is
ORDERED that the circuit courts dismissal of the petition for writ of habeas corpus is reversed, and the case is remanded to the circuit court for further proceedings on the petition.
DATED at Pierre, South Dakota, this 4th day of September, 2024.
